A perfectly striking image, but it still needs more depth of field. But if you use a smaller aperture, say f/8 or f/11, you'll have to crank up the ISO unless she's up for a 1 second shutter speed. But the image of her trying not to blink or breath probably won't look as good.

And while she has a flawless complexion and it looks good in B&amp;W, I'd like to see the color original. Yearbook pictures are small, and if the paper it's printed on is monochromatic, then a B&amp;W photo of her might get lost among the color photos of everyone else, however striking her's might be.

Thanks for all the comments. I'm glad others felt like working on it and changing it to their own liking. Thats the fun of digital.

I did work on her complextion byremoving spots and other skin imperfections by cloning. Following that I removed noise through NoiseWare Pro thenbw it and applied a degree of soft focus through the Picasa program and there you have it.
